College: I know what I want to do, but not what I want to be/major in


Posted Tuesday October 25 2011, 9:21 pm

I have always wanted to be in the medical field but not as a pediatrician or just talking to people. I don’t necessarily know what I should call what I want to be either..I want to be the one to do the research, discover cures in cancer/diseases, do lab work on people to find what they have or need, perform treatments, maybe make medicines and alter the chemicals, I wish to be the brains of the field and make a difference. I want to work hands on with stuff, I don’t really care if I work with people one on one and I am very smart with science and medical.
What would I call what I want to be? What major and is premed needed?
I do modeling, write/play/sing music, photography, and have had my paintings in state art shows. I ...

Estimation!


Posted Friday October 14 2011, 1:36 pm

Can you please help me out with this. I would really appreciate it.

Use estimation by rounding. Do not find exact value. Estimate the cost of new carpeting that costs $28.57 per square yard, if you want to carpet a room that is 14.7 square yards in size.

So i have a question about homework. No, I'm not trying to get anyone to give me an answer.. I'm just confused as to how Karl Marx's theory of economic crisis affects us today. Ive been reading up on it for the past two days, even watching youtube videos and I still dont understand it completely.. My paper is supposed to have us explain how a couple of his theories apply to us today.. and I wrote about the economic recession we are in today and im trying to apply it to Marx's theory of economic crisis

Simply put, I wrote about how machinery (constant capital) is slowly replacing living workers in the workplace.. which reduces the amount of wages that companys need to pay their workers.. which increases surplus value... but i...

ive decided what i want to do but now im scared.


Posted Tuesday September 6 2011, 8:59 am

17/f. After my senior year, I plan to attend university to get my bachelor's in elementary ed. I love kids and at church, I teach a class at my church. Yes, I've asked a question before about college. Most people usually don't know what they want to do so I should be overjoyed that I believe I found what I was created to do. I know teachers don't make a lot of money but all the teachers I know and had are doing pretty good in life. There are so many pros to being a teacher, making friends that will last me forever because I plan to work with them forever, weekends and holidays and summers off even though I hope to get a part time job over the summer and weekends to get extra money, being able to show my personality by decorating my own cla...

Not sure about college acceptances.


Posted Sunday September 4 2011, 8:42 pm

Hi, I am 17 and female. I am a senior in my high school and have yet to take my SAT's. I am registered to take them very soon. Before I take them, I intend to do some college visits. I know I should have done this over the summer but I was to busy with work. After I do college visits, then take my SAT's, I plan to apply for the colleges of my choice. That would probably be in 2 months. I am very concerned that applying that late would already make me not eligible to be accepted because I know you need to apply super early.

Am I correct in thinking this? Or will I get accepted to a college this late when I do my applying?

minors and majors.


Posted Sunday September 4 2011, 8:39 pm

I am seventeen, female, senior in high school. I intend to go to college after high school with a major in elementary ed. I want to be a 2nd grade teacher because I love kids so much, I babysit all the time and I am a teacher for two year olds at my church per request by my pastor's wife. Now, I would like to minor in something completely different so I can keep my options open, I would like to minor in either political science or communications.

My question is, what jobs would I be able to do with a minor of communications? What jobs would I be able to do with a minor of political science?

Thanks!

stressed on my first day


Posted Wednesday August 31 2011, 6:50 pm

I am 16 and female. Today was my first day of senior year. Today, my teacher's told me all about how I should be applying to colleges already and how I need to apply early to get on the top of the list. However, I have yet to take my SAT's. I have been reading up on a job I would like to pursue and that is an ultrasound technician. I would like to work with soon to be mother's and tell them about their children. I feel like the job would be so happy, however, I do know that some parts will be sad if there is something wrong with the child and I am willing to deal with that. I would like to know if I could go to any University for that job or if I should go online and take courses or if I should find a medical school in my area and attend th...

Writing a Hypothesis


Posted Tuesday August 16 2011, 6:32 am

Hey everyone, I'm doing a Psych. uni assignment and I was just wondering if I could get your opinions/advice on my hypothesis, if its correct etc.

A researcher was interested in the relationship between number of employees supervised and managers’ stress levels. He asked five managers to fill out a stress questionnaire and also took note of how many employees were under their supervision.

IV - Number of employees under supervision.
DV - Stress levels.

Hypothesis - The number of employees under supervision positively affects stress levels.

Could you also, please tell me if its alright to use the word 'positively' in my hypothesis? Or should I just simply say, The more empl...

Not sure about college? (UK)


Posted Sunday August 7 2011, 3:56 pm

For a very long time I have wanted nothing else but to go to college, then uni and become a midwife. All of a sudden, with like 3 weeks before i'm meant to start college I really don't want to go. I don't see the point in getting debts at uni so I probably won't do that and at college I have taken 4 subjects, 3 of which I don't want to do or care about. I've been thinking about acting professionally, but I'm not sure what sort of professional experience you need for that (all I have is an A grade drama gcse?). I'm getting quite upset about it, and I'm thinking I would rather get a full time job instead like one of my friends has done.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can either get straight into acting or find an educatio...

Posted Tuesday July 26 2011, 2:36 am

I am not getting the grades I want nor need. I am currently doing my b.tech from india. However, I can't seem to get A's on any of my quizzes or tests.
I study all the time. In about 1 - 2 hour increments a couple times a day. I am taking org chem 1, physiology, pre-cal, and communications. I am not worried so much about communications and for pre cal i just have to practice. As for organic i do the practice problems in the book over and over again. Then sometimes when the quizzes come i make stupid mistakes. I think i have test anxiety.
And for physiology i record the lectures and listen while in class, then go back over the recording and type out the notes later in the day. I never go out on weekends. I work about 10 hours o...
